[PATCH 2/4] Assign bdi in super_block

From: Jens Axboe
Date: Fri Sep 11 2009 - 07:50:53 EST


We do this automatically in get_sb_bdev() from the set_bdev_super()
callback. Filesystems that have their own private backing_dev_info
must assign that in ->fill_super().

Note that ->s_bdi assignment is required for proper writeback!
